That version is almost 1.5 year old. Most people around here would tell
you to upgrade, if you were having problems (which you evidently aren't).

Well that's odd. Most people around here will tell you (and the AppDB
will agree) that no overrides are necessary to run Office 2007 (or any

Why don't you just copy the files from .winetrickscache to some other
location?
